Do you have a rough estimate of what the price per page was for this?

Cool! I am the maintainer of a project that does very similar things. Maybe this is relevant for people trying to compose videos in JS or TS. https://github.com/redotvideo/revideo …

Thanks! We're using a server side ffmpeg process for the encoding right now, so running a server is required for rendering. We are exploring fully client-side rendering too but I'm…

If you mean Moviepy, then yes, there are some advantages. As I mentioned in another comment, you can ship Revideo as part of your website and run it inside the browser. One of the …

Thank you, I'll try to disable it! I noticed the little yanks too but didn't know where to look and therefore didn't take the time to try and get rid of it. Just checked out the de…

It really depends on the complexity of the scene. We're only getting started on optimizing rendering and I'm convinced that we can get it to be significantly more performant/cheape…

We haven't played around with this yet but this is possible. There are people working on this stuff in the Motion Canvas community, which is the animation library we're based on. I…

I think you already mentioned a few interesting ideas. Ultimately, we'll just build what our users want and see from there.

So far, we only have a prebuilt Player component for React, but it is definitely possible to integrate Revideo into a Vue project with a bit of hacking. I'd love to better understa…

We tried to reach out to Jacob but unfortunately didn't get a response from him. In general, Revideo and Motion Canvas have very different goals and we were very reluctant to go th…

Thank you! As of now, many people use Revideo to programatically create Youtube videos (primarily entertainment content, think of AI generated memes and Youtube Shorts) and for use…

Hi Mokshith, we talked about releasing a project using the Sieve API and Revideo before! This is definitely something we still want to do. I'll reach out!

Thank you! Love to hear it :)

The fact that it is JS actually implies more than just being written in a different language. You can ship Revideo as part of your website and run it inside the browser. One of the…

Hey! I'm not really familiar with either one so take this with a grain of salt. On the first glance, it doesn't seem like these projects are designed to be run in the browser. We'r…

Yes, that's us! We started out in the open source LLM space, but realized that most companies didn't really have any real use cases for custom fine-tuned LLMs. Maybe we were too ea…

Certainly! You can pretty much build full video editors with Revideo. There are many companies with video-editing at the core of their product that could have been built with us (t…

Encoding the video in the browser is on the roadmap, but currently we stream the frames one by one to an ffmpeg backend process and concatenate them into a video there. This has be…

The main use case is not necessarily about AI, but about putting all sorts of assets together into a video. However, we definitely see a lot of people using AI-generated voices and…

I agree! We were definitely motivated by the emergence of AI tools for video when building Revideo - as mentioned in the post, we think that a lot of video creation can be automate…

This is unfortunately not something that is currently on the roadmap. Revideo mainly runs inside the browser which is why we built it entirely in Typescript. You can check out movi…

Yes, exactly! We're also big fans of the generator function model. In Remotion, you get the current frame of the animation through a React hook called useCurrentFrame(). You then u…

Hey HN! We’re building Revideo ( https://github.com/redotvideo/revideo ), an open source framework for programmatic video editing. Revideo lets you create video templates in Typesc…
